About AGORA AI
AGORA AI is a human-led, AI-supported outreach platform that helps companies activate leads, candidates, and prospects through structured calling, follow-up, qualification, and campaign execution. Our agents use AGORA’s mobile app, scripts, training, and campaign workflows to help clients create more high-quality conversations.
About the Role
AGORA is hiring part-time remote B2B Appointment Setters to support an established Employer of Record (EOR) and back-office company that has served staffing and recruiting firms nationwide since 2006.
In this role, you will call owners and decision makers at staffing and recruiting firms on behalf of our client. Your goal is simple: open a short, professional conversation, ask a qualifying question, and book a 20-minute meeting between the prospect and one of the client’s experts. You are not expected to be the expert on payroll, funding, or compliance. You are the person who gets the right two people talking.
This is a strong opportunity for someone with B2B sales, staffing, recruiting, or business development experience who wants meaningful upside for every meeting they set.
Responsibilities
- Make outbound calls to staffing and recruiting firm owners and decision makers from provided lead lists
- Use AGORA’s mobile app to place calls, follow scripts, update statuses, and enter notes
- Introduce the client’s services in a concise, professional way
- Ask qualifying questions, such as whether the firm places people on contract and how they currently fund payroll
- Handle common objections using the provided playbook and steer every conversation toward a booked meeting
- Book 20-minute meetings directly on the client’s calendar and confirm attendee email before ending the call
- Leave live voicemails and support follow-up text and email sequences according to the campaign workflow
- Log call outcomes, contract status, funding method, and key prospect comments accurately after every call
- Attend team meetings or campaign updates as needed
- Communicate recurring objections, prospect feedback, and lead-quality issues to the AGORA team
Requirements
- Strong verbal communication skills
- Reliable phone, internet connection, and quiet calling environment
- Ability to follow scripts and qualification workflows carefully
- Comfort using a mobile app for calling, notes, and campaign updates
- Ability to commit a minimum of 5 hours per week once accepted into a campaign
- Prior experience in sales, staffing, recruiting, customer service, business development, or phone outreach is helpful but not required
- Training will be provided, including a walkthrough of the client’s services, ideal prospect, and objection handling
Compensation
This is a commission-based role:
- $75 per qualified meeting booked that meets the campaign’s qualification criteria
- $500 bonus for every meeting you set that results in a signed client
There is no cap on earnings. Qualification criteria and payout details will be explained during onboarding.

Application & Acceptance Process
AGORA uses a performance-based screening process.
Step 1 — Download AGORA AI
Download the AGORA AI Sales Agent app from the Apple App Store:

Create your account and complete your profile.
Step 2 — Complete the Calling Test
You will complete an in-app calling assessment designed to evaluate your communication, confidence, professionalism, and ability to handle a sales conversation.
Step 3 — Training, If Needed
Depending on your calling-test performance, you may be asked to complete an additional learning course before being considered for a live campaign. Candidates who demonstrate strong performance on the calling test may be able to move through the process more quickly.
Step 4 — Campaign Review
Our team will review your assessment and determine whether you are a fit for the AGORA BDR network and available campaigns. Candidates should generally expect an acceptance decision within approximately one week after completing the calling test.
Passing the screening process does not guarantee immediate placement into a campaign. Campaign assignments depend on client demand, campaign requirements, availability, and fit.
Time Commitment
Once accepted into an active campaign, BDRs are expected to commit a minimum of 5 hours per week. This is a part-time opportunity designed for people who can consistently dedicate focused time to outbound calling.
